In another world, in another time, Dr. Zomboss would receive the bounty of enthusiastic applause that is his due. Not here and now, though. Nope.

Smashes plants with the speakers randomly falling from above; these speakers do passive damage to any plant (except Phat Beets and ground plants) within two tiles in front of it. Speakers dropped can kill plants even when fed with Plant Food.

Makes a rightmost speaker send out shockwaves to wipe all the plants and zombies in its lane. If there is not one in the lane, it will automatically spawn when it degrades.

In the Almanac, the picture and almanac stats shows only Dr. Zomboss instead of the Zombot itself. Only the Punk form of Dr. Zomboss can be seen.

Dr. Zomboss' opening speech is a reference to Rick Astley's music video, "Never Gonna Give You Up," though the verses are paraphrased.

After being defeated, Dr. Zomboss will moonwalk to the right and escape.

The moonwalk was popularized by Michael Jackson (who obviously inspired the old Dancing Zombie's appearance and moving animation, which may have in turn inspired Dr. Zomboss's escaping animation) in the 1980s.

This is the only zombot that does not warp itself away after defeat, because it's way too big.

Before the 4.2.1 update in the Almanac, Dr. Zomboss made vocal noises and was the second zombie to have done that, the first being Zombie King.

Unlike other Zombots, it visually degrades when health is depleted to half.

If a lawn mower touches the stage, it blows up in a puff of smoke instead of proceeding all the way out of the lawn.

This makes it the only Zombot that can obstruct the lawn mower, and it deals no damage.

Zombot Multi-stage Masher is not subject of Glitter Zombie's rainbow trail's protection, therefore, they will not hide the entire stage. This was possibly done due to balancing reasons..

Spore-shrooms work differently on this Zombot, as they shoot directly to Dr. Zomboss instead of shooting the spores in their lane.

There is a glitch that can be performed during the rap phase. When there is a Breakdancer Zombie on screen, use Power Toss against him but do not flick him off the lawn. Just flick once then wait about two seconds and flick him again, keep doing this until he is at the stage (or you can use a Primal Peashooter to knock him back during Modern Day - Day 34), then he will kick the stage forward.

If this happens, the Zombot will summon zombies closer; if close enough, to your lawn mowers or house. Also, whenever a speaker wave hits the stage due to this, it will send Dr. Zomboss flinging off the screen and toss the Zombot off the screen making the player instantly win the battle but the player is unable to collect the money bag and earn cash from unused lawn mowers. It can be seen here.

This may be because the level quits when the Zombot is off the lawn, which it is when it is flung off the screen, making the level finish almost instantly.

Even though speakers do not damage ground plants, speakers deals damage to Primal Potato Mines, unless they are armed.

There is another glitch where if a Stunion gasses a Zombie at the same time a Speaker wave hits it, it will get stuck in midair like it still being blasted off the stage. This will end when the Stunion gas usually wears off.

A part of Dr. Zomboss' dance during rap resembles the Gangnam Style move although Neon Mixtape Tour is set in the 80s, while the dance move is set in the modern times.

So far, this is the only Zombot to appear in Modern Day that never changes the cycle of which it spawns zombies, unlike how other Zombots changing their spawning cycle at least once. This is due to jams.
